The Church of Ireland: a critical bibliography, 1536–1992 Part VI: 1870–1992
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 July 2016
Extract
The standard general histories of the Church of Ireland are inevitably curtailed in their treatment of the years under review in this section. Mant’s two volumes were published in 1840, and the relevant volume of Phillips’s three-part work appeared in 1934. The final chapter (by C. A. Webster) is entitled ‘The church since disestablishment’, and its tone is consistent with the instructions given to the team of authors by the general synod in 1929, when the work was commissioned, that it should constitute ‘a measure of defence against hostile propaganda’. Accordingly, considerable attention is paid to such Church of Ireland grievances as the bull Apostolicae curiae and the Ne temere decree. Several pages are devoted to the St Bartholomew’s ritual cases, and space is given to changes in the church constitution and to missionary work overseas. Of the Church of Ireland's interaction with the profound social and political changes then taking place in the country, little is said, apart from a reference to the need for church extension in Belfast. Perhaps it was too soon. Scarcely of the same magnitude as Phillips's extensive survey, the single-volume history by Johnston, Robinson and Jackson, though published thirty years later, takes the story no further, nor can it be said to show evidence of the transformation in Irish historiography that had taken place in the intervening decades.

John Cooney, then religious affairs correspondent of the Irish Times, wrote on Northern Ireland and the religious dilemma in New Divinity, iv, no. 1 (summer 1974), concluding that ‘sectarianism and denominational rivalry are in-built into the power structures of the churches’. This critique of northern society contributes to our understanding of church attitudes in the north and of what informs them, as does Chains to be broken by the archbishop of Armagh, R. H. A.
